He reaches out to foreigners who are beyond the borders of the "Israel of God". He seeks the release of captives, prisoners, and slaves. He denounces the scribes and religious leaders who "devour the houses of widows". Despite his well-known requirement of loyalty that surpasses family ties, he insists that a man put the care of his own parents ahead of his obligations to his religion. His treatment of women is radically opposed to the strictures of that day. He exhibits sympathy and understanding toward children. He operates an out-patient clinic wherever he happens to be. He insists upon justice as the basis for everyday dealings between citizens. The social teaching of parables like "the good Samaritan" and incidents such as the encounter with the rich young ruler have had an effect upon his followers that cannot easily be measured. If one summary statement of Jesus' ethics can be made, it is that love of God is best shown by love of fellow men.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6598</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm in favor of immigration but we also need rules. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35303]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'm in favor of immigration but we also need rules.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35303</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Valuations remain a little stretched, and we could see some further weakness into the early part of the year. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28348]]></link><description><![CDATA[Valuations remain a little stretched, and we could see some further weakness into the early part of the year.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28348</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everything I did in my life that was worthwhile I caught hell for. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21336]]></link><description><![CDATA[Everything I did in my life that was worthwhile I caught hell for.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21336</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The whole art of teaching is only the art of awakening the natural curiosity of young minds for the purpose ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13549]]></link><description><![CDATA[The whole art of teaching is only the art of awakening the natural curiosity of young minds for the purpose of satisfying it afterwards. -Anatole France.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13549</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Since your legs, Phoebus, resemble the horns of the moon, you might bathe your feet in a cornucopia. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14066]]></link><description><![CDATA[Since your legs, Phoebus, resemble the horns of the moon, you might bathe your feet in a cornucopia.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14066</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Trials teach us what we are; they dig up the soil, and let us see what we are made of. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59696]]></link><description><![CDATA[Trials teach us what we are; they dig up the soil, and let us see what we are made of.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59696</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To be adult is to be alone. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25469]]></link><description><![CDATA[To be adult is to be alone.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25469</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Spiritual stagnation ensues when man's environment becomes unpredictable or when his inner life is made wholly predictable. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56887]]></link><description><![CDATA[Spiritual stagnation ensues when man's environment becomes unpredictable or when his inner life is made wholly predictable.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56887</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am nothing and to nothing tend, On earth I nothing have and nothing claim,  Man's noblest works must ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62137]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am nothing and to nothing tend, On earth I nothing have and nothing claim,  Man's noblest works must have one common end,   And nothing crown the tablet of his name.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62137</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Thomas the Apostle  I know what it is to doubt and question.
